MA.6.AR.1.1 · Algebraic Reasoning
Students translate written descriptions into algebraic expressions and algebraic expressions back into words, using both mathematical and real-world contexts. For example, "a number increased by 15" becomes f + 15, and the expression 8v − 120 might describe profit from washing v cars. This is the foundation for all later equation writing.
FAST items are mostly multiple choice questions asking which expression matches a description (or which description matches an expression), plus some equation editor items where students write the expression themselves.
